Weekend Trip to A Country Escape

Our stay at La Rita’s Land was truly peaceful and refreshing. The serene surroundings and quiet atmosphere made it a perfect escape into nature. We especially loved the visits from the friendly chickens—they added such a charming touch to the experience! The RV was spotless and fully stocked with everything we needed, making our stay incredibly comfortable. La Rita was also wonderfully responsive, ensuring that everything went smoothly. We highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a relaxing and well-maintained retreat!

Weekend Trip to A Country Escape

La Rita’s was quiet and easy to find. The camper was clean and cozy. La Rita explained everything before we got there. She sent a thorough message before our check in day. We are already thinking so coming back next year.
